# 4 Bob Backlund (1993) - Eliminated 28th - 2 eliminations
Former WWF Champion, Bob Backlund, predominantly wrestled in an era before the Royal Rumble existed, having wrestled for the WWF during the 70s and 80s. However, at the start of the 90s, Backlund had returned to the company and made his Royal Rumble debut at the 1993 Royal Rumble. Backlund started in the ring with the previous years Royal Rumble winner, Ric Flair.
Backlund would last all the way to the final three before being eliminated by the eventual winner, Yokozuna. Along the way, Backlund managed to eliminate Fatu and Rick Martel. Backlund's time in the ring, a whopping 1 hour, 1 minute and 10 seconds, eclipsed the record set by Ric Flair the previous year. In the process of doing so, Backlund became only the second man in history to break the 1-hour mark in the Royal Rumble, a feat that has only been done 6 times in the history of the Rumble. Backlund's run in the Rumble remained the record for 11 years until it was beaten by Chris Benoit in 2004.
